Customization

Magento wins. Unlimited customization if you have developers. Shopify is customizable but has some limitations.

Scalability

Both scale well. Shopify handles high traffic easily. Magento can handle enterprise-level complexity.

Speed

Shopify wins. Fast out of the box with managed hosting. Magento can be fast but requires expert optimization.
